Have they fixed the memory leak with it? (Or have they updated system requirements? No way is a 1050ti sufficient...)

have you played it on the Steam Deck, yet? I’m wondering how well an ARPG plays with a controller.


Slimbook reveal the AMD powered Excalibur laptop and KDE Plasma 6 Slimbook gamingonlinux.com/2024/02/slim…

That is one gorgeous machine.

But personally I wouldn't buy something that big. I have a 16" from work (Lenovo T16 Gen1) and its just too big, even with the slim bezels. I prefer the roadwarrior machines 😜

Edit: wont say no to that 13" AMD machine though 😉😉

LOL... absolutely hilarious the guy comment.

Well... you don't get into a Linux conference and scream out loud during a talk's Q&A "why da heck aren't you nerds using Windows???".

I guess the same applies for GitHub.

ok i'm seeing some christian upbringing fun facts on my timeline and i'd like to take a moment to tell you all that in australia, many private schools have a "religious education" teacher who has absolutely zero qualifications and is often, uh, a bit strange

in my class we got to have these "journeys" where the teacher would play a "guided meditation" CD and we would just lie on the floor with our eyes closed minutes listening to "you wake up on a beach with crystal clear water and nothing but the sound of the waves around you" for forty five minutes

but what i had is nothing compared to some of the shit that went on at other schools - cw for religious discrimination, fucked up things pastors tell kids, and tumblr:
tumblr.com/batshit-auspol/7287…

in reply to Lynnesbian

my school's religious class was called RAVE (Religion and Values Education)

you'll never guess what kind of values we were educated on

thankfully the inevitable Gay Debate was only about five minutes long. one kid started speaking up to say something that was going to be homophobic but when he saw me and my partner (both pre-transition) holding hands and staring at him he stopped for some reason :thinkhappy:



Due to #spam and #antisemitism, the following server is recommended for #Fediblock:

I discovered this server when I was following up on a spam report, and noticed that they also host anti-semitic content as well.

Here’s an example of a spam account that has not been removed, despite my reports, and has been functioning since February 7th:

assortedflotsam.com/@yqqwe/

And here’s an example of anti-semitism:

Screenshot is also attached.




just finished a small project to write a python script to generate a static html site from a bookwyrm list

an example generated website is here:
books.commoninternet.net/

the code and a readme of how to use it is here:
git.coopcloud.tech/notplants/b…

this project combined a few different interests

for one, I wanted to archive what books I was reading in a better way. like normal, this turned into an elaborate yak shaving hair salon.

I thought in some ways creating a static html page would be more durable than putting something on bookwyrm. I was inspired by the library pages of @clarity (clarity.flowers/books/) and toby shorin (tobyshorin.com/library/) as well as others

at the same time I liked bookwyrm and the idea of being a part of a commons in addition to an individual website

I also had been interested to experiment with representing something from activitypub with a new frontend, which seems to me to be one of the magic parts of an open web

We thought we knew how Voyager would end. The power would gradually, inevitably, run down. The instruments would shut off, one by one. The signal would get fainter. Eventually either the last instrument would fail for lack of power, or the signal would be lost.

We didn’t expect that it would go mad.

It has been a while since I've encountered this, but just in case it's not clear - do not, and I mean, do not, validate people's names


It‘s so funny to me that on all other platforms almost no one sees my posts. And then there is mastodon with no algorithm at all and for the first time I have the feeling that my art isn‘t that bad at all. 💙

#MastoArt #art #sketch

in reply to Jugi

There's an algorithm, but it is a simple and transparent one: your followers see all your posts (unless they've muted you or muted a hashtag you included). If you use a hashtag, people who follow that hashtag see your post. If someone boosts your post, the followers of that someone see your post (and if that someone is @lisamelton a whole lot of people see it). There's nothing else that artificially boosts or limits your engagement. The users, not the owners, choose what gets seen.


testing webmentions (pls ignore) cybercultural.com/p/021-iphone…
in reply to Richard MacManus

Because there's no server-side rendering, and the tool likely doesn't execute JavaScript. But Mastodon doesn't send webmentions anyway.

@Gargron I thought I had set up brid.gy to be the go-between, but I must've done something wrong somewhere... thanks for your reply.

"My main takeaway is the internet and the open web as we know it are fragile. And these companies that we take for granted, and we think of as somewhat infallible, are for sale to the highest bidder. And when that happens, which we saw so clearly with Elon, there's very little a board or the employees, and certainly not the users, can do to stop it."

It's hard to fathom that this was such a surprise to so many people in 2022, but it was.

Douglas @Rushkoff's 'Throwing Rocks' book was published in 2016. As was 'Ours to Hack and to Own', a book of essays on exactly this edited by Nathan Schneider (@ntnsndr) and Trebor Scholz;

opendemocracy.net/en/ours-to-h…

Followed by Zeynep Tufekci's 'Twitter and Teargas' in 2017, and in 2018, 'The Age of Surveillance Capitalism' by Shoshana Zuboff.

I guess I can understand average netizens being unaware of this in 2022. But if the tech press read they have no excuse for being caught napping.

we literally tried to prevent exactly this from happening in 2016/17, and #Socialcoop was a direct outgrowth of that effort: buytwitter.org
